We will tell you where to get discounted ski lift tickets and rentals right by the house.

The ski house is approximately 8 miles away or 20 minutes away from all four major ski resorts. Occasionally, Alta and Snowbird will get so much snow that they are forced to close down the road for several hours due to Avalanche control. This is not a problem when you are located here, on these days, we make a right out of the community and ski either Solitude or Brighton which is nearly the same distance, it's really cool.
Being located at the base of the mountain between little and big cotton wood canyon has location proximity advantages. Make a left from the community and head to towards Alta and Snowbird. Make a right from the community and head to Solitude and Brighton. You are also close to the restaurants, super-markets, Starbucks, therapeutic massage clinic (I like "Massage Envy"), shopping, freeway and airport. If you don't want to drive, walk to the ski shuttle, it's an easy 5 min walk.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Howdy! During the winter we ski mostly Utah and Canada, during the rest of the year we reside on the coast of sunny southern California. We are loyal Utah skiers who have skied all over North America and Europe. This truly is the greatest snow on earth! Happy skiing!
Why the Owner Chose Alta
I'm writing this for my husband. :) He bought here because simply put, he is a ski snob. Type of guy who won't bother unless the snow conditions are ideal. House location and Skiing in this area is just superb close to all that matters.
The Unique Benefits of this Townhouse Condominium
Only 8 miles away from the resort. You can walk to the ski bus shuttle which is only a 3 minute walk. It's ridiculously convenient to the airport, only a 20 minute drive so you can focus on getting on the mountain instead of hanging out the airport or road travel.

Auco, The property met our needs very well. We were very happy with the location and the layout of the house. It was very well set up for a family of our size (4 kids). We have skied at various places around the western US and really like Utah as well. We spent all 4 of our skiing days at Solitude this year, although we have been to Alta and Snowbird before (without kids). We were already talking about going back next year, hopefully with another family next time. So I think there is a good chance we will be contacting you next summer or fall to set up another ski vacation, and that we would want the 4 bedroom house next time to accommodate a second family. I will remember the 10% discount as well. Thanks, Todd

I wanted to let you know that my husband and his friend got to the house last night (they are skiing a day earlier and the rest of us arrive today). They said the house was fantastic!

Hi Au-Co, I meant to email you on Friday, but we had such a bad storm I left work early. We left the key in the lockbox and the garage door opener on the counter. Thank you again for letting us rent it, it was a lifesaver! I hope you have a wonderful holiday and a Happy New Year!
